Megan Thee Stallion is returning to the game with a familiar sound and flow.

Megan Thee Stallion Speaks With Michelle Obama About New Album

Michelle’s podcast, “IMO,” has featured a slew of celebrity guests, from Angel Reese to Keke Palmer to Stallion, who recently announced her upcoming album with a fiery social media post. While speaking with Michelle on her show, Stallion said that she was looking forward to bringing her alter ego, Tina Snow, back to the forefront.

“I think giving her a proper rollout, a proper title, a reintroduction to Hotties that may not have been with me since 2017, 2018, I think that this is gonna be a new experience for them,” she told the “Becoming” author. “Tina is grown now, babe. She has been through lots of life since y’all heard from her last.”

Megan Thee Stallion Needed Space And Time To Finish Her Album

While Stallion’s latest album doesn’t have a release date just yet, it’s coming two years after she released “ACT II: Megan,” in the summer of 2024.

“Act III is going to be one of my favorite projects I ever put out because I definitely took my time with this one,” the rapper told Michelle before revealing she asked to have peace and quiet for an extended period of time to complete her project.

“For Act III, I went home, and I was like, ‘Nobody bother me. I gotta finish my album,'” she said. “So, this has been the most organized and the most calm I’ve been making music in a while.”

Stallion hasn’t given the fans a peek of what’s to come, but it’s safe to assume she may reference her messy split from NBA champion Klay Thompson. She revealed they went their separate ways with a shocking Instagram post, claiming that the former Golden State Warriors star cheated on her.

“Cheating, had me around your whole family playing house… got ‘cold feet,'” she posted, per The Blast. “Holding you down through all your HORRIBLE mood swings and treatment towards me during your basketball season, now you don’t know if you can be ‘monogamous????'”

She followed her post up with another one, saying, “Trust, fidelity and respect are non-negotiable for me in a relationship, and when those values are compromised, there’s no real path forward. I’m taking this time to prioritize myself and move ahead with peace and clarity.”

Elsewhere during her interview with Michelle, Stallion opened up about how challenging things have been for her while living her life in the public eye.

“Being me is, it’s a rollercoaster,” she said. “Like some days I feel like, ‘yes, hell yeah. We on top.’ But then some days, I feel like, ‘oh my gosh, I need to go get under my bed.’ Like I don’t want to see anybody. I don’t want anybody to see me. I’m so tired. I’m tired of people talking about me.”

Despite that, Stallion said that she often has moments where she realizes she’s blessed beyond measure. “So even though I have like a lot of good days, I, I mean, I can’t have the good without the bad. But what I’ve been learning lately is how to express more gratitude,” she said, adding that she’s learned to pray and express gratitude rather than praying to request more.

Stallion also said that while she’s been growing and changing over the last few years, she’s learned more about herself than she could’ve imagined.

“I feel like strong shows up in so many different ways,” she said. “It’s not about being tough or just stoic. It’s about what you look like. I think it’s about being. Like, brave enough to keep going. Brave enough to be like, I don’t want to do this. Just brave enough to feel how you feel and have your boundaries. Saying yes to everything doesn’t make you strong.”
